Debtor Electronic Bankruptcy Noticing (DeBN)

The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Iowa now offers debtors the opportunity to request receipt of court notices and orders via email, instead of U.S. mail, through a program called "Debtor Electronic Bankruptcy Noticing" or "DeBN."

DeBN provides the following advantages:

Faster - Receive notices the same day they are filed by the court.

Convenient - Access your notices anywhere you have internet access

No more lost paperwork - Store notices on your computer means never losing a paper copy.

Only the court is authorized to send notices to the debtor through this DeBN program. All other parties, such as trustees and creditors, will continue to serve the debtor via U.S. mail or in person as required by federal rules.
